@BornAgainBalaky @ProvisionistP I don’t. I think his eschatology was off. And his understanding of the relationship between Old Covenant people of God and the New Covenant people.

[Greg Crouse @CrouseGreg69485]

@ProvisionistP Dinesh is correct when he points out that those people would be better off if the didn’t exist. That’s what Jesus said about Judas. God created Judas anyway.

[Greg Crouse @CrouseGreg69485]

@ProvisionistP Well, the vessels of wrath weren’t prepared for glory. And the whole illustration is that the same potter made both of them. God being the potter who makes both vessels, did the preparing and the fitting.

@KirkWilson Stern corrections for early churches. No assembly was perfect then or now. Did I mention the apostle Peter need correction too?

[Greg Crouse @CrouseGreg69485]

@KirkWilson Some did, some didn’t. A lot of them didn’t possess the entire New Testament. And in 1st and 2nd Corinthians we see Paul has to address a lot of problems; the Galatians were being duped into introducing works into the gospel, and then Rev 2&3 has stern correct

@MichaelSwenson4 @1984_nate God obviously didn’t love the people in Egypt, Ethiopia, and Seba in the same way He does d Israel.

[Greg Crouse @CrouseGreg69485]

@MichaelSwenson4 @1984_nate Isa 43:3 - For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.

Since you were precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life

@MichaelSwenson4 @1984_nate We’re worse than termites. Being image bearers is what makes our rebellion against the God that we know exists so heinous. The point is, what you do flows from what you are. God’s redemptive love is reserved for His covenant people and He decides who they are.

[Greg Crouse @CrouseGreg69485]

@MichaelSwenson4 @1984_nate And he’s going to destroy them all; even the babies and the eggs that haven’t eaten any wood yet.

[Greg Crouse @CrouseGreg69485]

@MichaelSwenson4 @1984_nate There’s no greater excuse for eating wood than being a termite. But I’m still calling the exterminator.

@Fed_Not_Schizo @beready4rapture The only things that can happen are the things God knows will happen. Don’t tell me you’re huffing the molonism crack pipe.

[Greg Crouse @CrouseGreg69485]

@Fed_Not_Schizo @beready4rapture Yes it does translate to that. You must take tge course of action that God has known for eternity that you shall take. It cannot be otherwise.

[Greg Crouse @CrouseGreg69485]

@Fed_Not_Schizo @beready4rapture In the sense that you can make no choice or take any action contrary to what God already knows. If you can’t understand that, and how it is a limitation, I can’t help you.

[Greg Crouse @CrouseGreg69485]

@Fed_Not_Schizo @beready4rapture I did explain it. You didn’t understand it. I can explain it to you, but I can’t understand it for you. If God has infallible knowledge of the choices and actions we will make, we cannot do otherwise. That is the sense in which we are limited.

[Greg Crouse @CrouseGreg69485]

@1984_nate Does God give the same grace to everyone?

[Greg Crouse @CrouseGreg69485]

@MrTimothyRenfro @DineshDSouza @HwsEleutheroi The cross is where God’s wrath against the sins of the elect is satisfied. God’s wrath against the sin of the non elect is never satisfied, but is eternally demonstrated in their eternal punishment.
